very simple, we use the formula sin(a+b)=sinacosb + sinbcosa and sin(20)=2sinacosa

5pi = 2pi/3+3pi/3,

First, we use sin(a+b)=sinacosb + sinbcosa

sin(5pi/3)=sin(2pi/3+3pi/3)= sin(2pi/3+pi)= sin(2pi/3)cos(pi) +sin(pi)cos(2pi/3)

but we know that sin(pi)= 0, and cos (pi) = -1, so sin(5pi/3)= - sin(2pi/3)

now, use sin(2a)=2sinacosa, sin(5pi/3)= - sin(2pi/3)= -2sin(pi/3)cos(pi/3)

sin<span>(5pi/3)=  -2sin(pi/3)cos(pi/3)</span>

<span>sin(pi/3)= 0.86, cos(pi/3)=0.5, finally we have   </span>sin<span>(5pi/3)=  -0.86 x 0.5= -0.43</span>

Well, you're just suppose to know where 5pi/3 is on the unit circle.
That is in the fourth quadrant with coordinates (1/2, -root3/2)
So sin of 5pi/3 would be = to -root3/2

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

<h2>Total yards of ribbon bought is 6.993yards of ribbon</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pieces of ribbon James bought for his craft project = 10pieces. If each pieces of ribbon were 2.1feet long, the total number of feet for 10ribbons is expressed as;

= 10 * 2.1\\= 21feets

Converting 21 feets to yards;

1 feet = 0.333yard

21feets = x

x = 21feet * 0.333\\= 6.993yards

Total yards of ribbon bought is 6.993yards of ribbon

What is 7 less than y<br> In math
saw5 [17]

Answer:

The algebraic expression is "y - 7".

Step-by-step explanation:

"7 less" means "- 7", so you're subtracting 7 from y. You then write it as "y - 7".

Slope 3, passing through the point (2,2)
den301095 [7]

(y-y1)=m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1 and y1 ) are the points

(y-2) = 3(x-2)

y-2=3x-6  add 2 to each side

y-2+2=3x-6+2

y=3x-4
